NidEnergie is a Nidwaldester state-owned power company, it was created under the Ludwig Mann administration in 1904 reuniting the administration of all the electricity generation plants in Nidwalden, to which later were added the hydroelectric dams. The company was responsible of the change of energy mix since the '80s; today the company produces a 95.9% of its energy from renewable sources, being one of the greener energy producer companies of Astyria.
NidEnergie is one of the most profitable companies in Nidwalden as it holds a monopoly over energy supply and production in the Grand Duchy. The company is leader in renewable energies in the Lorecian continent although its operations are focused in the Nidwaldester market. The company has a workforce of around 21,314 employees and operates the seven dams and wind farms of Nidwalden; since 2008, the company has worked with Valkean Electric and the Lorecian Community setting up one of the largest cars chargers in Astyria and developing new technologies.
